FAQs

What does 'What The' mean for this shoe?

'What The' refers to a design concept where multiple iconic colorways and elements from previous models are combined into a single, eclectic design, creating a unique and visually striking shoe.

Are these shoes suitable for players with wide feet?

The Nike Kybrid S2 generally features a standard width. If you have particularly wide feet, it's advisable to try them on or consult reviews specifically addressing fit for wider feet.

What is the primary benefit of the mid-top design?

The mid-top design offers enhanced ankle support and stability, which is crucial for preventing injuries during quick cuts, jumps, and landings common in basketball.

How durable is the sole of the Kybrid S2?

The outsole is typically made from durable rubber compounds designed for long-lasting wear and consistent traction on basketball courts.

Can I use these shoes for running or training outside of basketball?

While the shoes offer cushioning, they are specifically designed for the lateral movements and support required in basketball. For running or general training, dedicated shoes for those activities would be more appropriate.

Is this a limited edition release?

The 'What The' colorways are often released in limited quantities, making them highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.

What materials are used in the Nike Kybrid S2?

The shoe typically incorporates a mix of synthetic materials, mesh, and sometimes leather for a balance of support, breathability, and durability.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or loose

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If still uncomfortable, try adjusting the lacing pattern. For minor tightness, wearing them for short periods can help break them in.

Traction is poor on dusty courts

Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Regularly cleaning the soles will help maintain optimal grip.

Color bleeding on lighter socks

This is a potential characteristic of heavily dyed, vibrant materials. Initial wears may experience minor color transfer. Washing socks separately for the first few times is recommended. Avoid excessive moisture.
